For seven percussionists, Paquiliztli is a 5 1/2 minute work for the intermediate ensemble. Instrumentation includes one xylophonist, one marimbist, one vibist, one timpanist and three multi-percussionists utilizing suspended cymbals, cymbal attached to bass drum, snare drum, triangle, bongos, chimes, tom toms, tambourine, bass drum and claves. Primarily in 4/8 time with eighth note=132, the work does include sections of changing meter to 3/8, 2/8 and 5/8. Not only is the tempo an indication, but in rhythm as well, much of the piece has a march-like quality to it. Tonality as we know it does exist in a few passages, but serialism is also employed, sometimes completing nearly two entire rows before any manipulation occurs. The timpani part is the most demanding, and requires an advanced performer. The other parts, while at times interesting, are not that demanding. While it is possible to perform the marimba part with two mallets throughout, certain large-leap double-stop passages are more easily executed with the use of four mallets. For the most part, the multi-percussion parts are straightforward. However, perhaps the most unique aspect of these three parts would be in the teaching of multi-percussion considerations to these three players. Mallet changes, instrument placement, and other logistics are not always overcome easily in this work. It may well be worth assigning younger players to these parts. - Rich Holly, Summer 1990 [1]
